It is driveable but will require professional quality work to be considered in excellent condition."

This is a very solid Texas car that would make a great project. It needs pretty much everything to be show quality, but could be made to order for you. It runs and shifts fair , but has a crisp shift between 1st and 2nd. It needs a heater core installed. New one included. Radio is missing. The interior needs replacing though the dash pad, rear seat,and door panels aren't too bad. A used headliner is included. No carpet. The floor pans are excellent with only one 1inch hole in the drivers side floor. The trunk floor has some surface corrosion due to rear window leak, but upon replacing gas tank, I was amazed at how solid the underside of all the pans were. I have recently replaced the radiator, gas tank, master cylinder , brake hoses, and distributor.  The roof has very light surface rust due to old vinyl roof removal. The front windshield is new. The chrome trim for the windshield and vinyl roof are in the trunk. The filler panel between the trunk lid and rear windshield needs replacing. A new one is included. The quarters are solid and can be used.The right front fender needs a patch panel and the right rocker has a crease due to scrape. Bottom edge of doors is rust free. The tires are like new. Overall this car will require quality body work ,mechanical and interior work. What you won't have to do is deal with a lot of rust. It has great potential, but please don't expect a $20,000.00 show car for $3200.00

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
